With Papertrey's Christmas Countdown in full swing, I thought I'd share this card. Remember the 'spackle' stamp which my hunkadorus brought home for me a few months ago? It makes the most wonderful snow :0)!
Nichole shared this technique with us when she introduced "Through the Trees" - where you heat emboss the image with clear embossing powder and add some interest to the background. Wiping away any excess ink from the image again, when you're done.
I used some torn vellum for the 'snow line' at the bottom ;0)
So are you feeling Christmassy yet?? It sure is getting cool here already. The 'burning bushes' are changing colour ....
It's coming, ready or not!
Have a totally fabulous day peeps!
{Hugs}!

What a simple idea, yet that torn vellum is the most perfect snow! LOVE everything about your card, especially that amazing color scheme.
Blech. Snow. Don't even bring it up Nerina! lol It usually snows here form October to April, and I am not looking forward to it, no matter HOW beautiful your card is. It actually reminds me of a snowglobe...awesome!

I am definitely not ready for Christmas yet! I don't even like the word snow.:) Beautiful card though. Hope you have a nice time on your trip.
This is absolutely gorgeous. When I saw it, I thought of the new sentiment - peace, be still. Everything works so well together and that vellum snow - Wow!
